News broke yesterday that a Penduline Tit had been spotted at Woolston Eyes in Warrington. However, due to family commitments, I would have to wait until the morning to go. Early this morning, I received news that the bird was still present, so I headed over there with Owen Parsons. Upon our arrival, we learned that the bird hadn't been seen for over an hour, but we didn't have to wait long before it was found in the east corner.
Woolston Eyes Number 4 Bed
The Penduline Tit was observed feeding on bulrushes (Typha) and was eventually seen clearly.

This was Cheshire and Wirral's third record after one was found at Woolston Eyes in 2022. What a week! Barred Warbler and Penduline Tit were added to the Cheshire life list!
